Tripadvisor Swot Analysis
TripAdvisor was founded in February 2000 by Stephen Kaufer, Langley Steinert, and several others. Stephen Kaufer says the original idea wasn't a user generated social media site to swap reviews. " We started as a site where we were focused more on those official words from guidebooks or newspapers or magazines. We also had a button in the very beginning that said visitors add your own review and boy did that just take off. Pretty soon the number of average consumer reviews far surpassed the number of "professional reviews". That is when the site really turned into this collection of what the normal traveller was saying whererever they were going. "[6] Original financing was obtained from Flagship Ventures, the Bollard Group and private investors.[7] The company was purchased by IAC/InterActiveCorp in 2004. IAC spun off its travel group of businesses under the Expedia, Inc. name in August 2005.[8]

In April 2009, TripAdvisor launched its official site in China, www.daodao.com. Since then it has indexed more than 20,000 hotels and restaurants information and customer reviews, and made top lists, becoming one of the biggest travel websites as of July 2011.[9]

    The organization that I have chosen to do my SWOT analysis on is the New Orleans Saints football team. They are among the most successful teams of this decade but not ranked very high as far as most lucrative organizations in the National Football League. They are currently ranked 23rd among the 30 active teams in the national football league. The organization was formed and became a professional football team in 1967. The team got its nickname due to its founding being on All Saints Day on November 1, 1967. The team initially one of the weaker franchises in the league. It didn’t win many games and struggled to sell out games. They have won one Super Bowl title, 5 Division Championships, and made only 9 playoff appearances in its 46 year existence. The ultimate goal of this organization is to win football games and generate revenue by selling tickets and merchandise.…

    TripAdvisor was formed in 2000 out of the personal frustration of three people who were unable to find unbiased information on the internet regarding hotels and users’ accommodation experiences. Out of the frustration, Kaufer and his cohort set out to amalgamate users’ experiences about their travels on one site, and thus TripAdvisor was born. It is now one of the most sought-after sites for anyone who is planning a vacation, with listings of over 400,000 hotels, 90,000 attractions, and 70,000 destinations. With such a wide portfolio, it is beneficial to understand the reasons and motivations behind the company’s appeal to customers and why customers spend their time to leave reviews after their travels to the various destinations. An investigation of their success journey and the continued appeal from consumers can assist other companies to rethink how user-generated content can be effectively applied in revenue-generating activities, plus how companies can positively influence the choice making satisfaction. More so, roles are evolving and no longer are customers just passive consumers of advertisements put out by advertisers. It is not any more the prerogative of the ad agency or their…

    Although ADP (Automatic Data Processing) is one of the leading providers of business outsourcing solutions, it has weaknesses that negatively affect the company. One significant aspect of ADP is that the company has clients in many foreign countries, but less than only 20% of ADP’s revenues come from other regions of the world. The company has been majorly focusing on customers’ needs here in the US, keeping their clients up to date with the current laws and regulations (their HR department) and making payroll processing convenient. What they lack, though, is a diversified geographic. It’s important to concentrate on the US operations, but other countries have specific issues that may need to be handled differently. If ADP wants to expand and take full advantage of their services, they ought to pay more attention to their geographic diversification.…
